Pet owners searching for apartments in Middlesex County, NJ will find a standout option at The Arthur. Located at 21 Washington Avenue in Carteret, NJ 07008, The Arthur sits within Middlesex County and offers something most county apartment communities do not: a secure, private on-site dog run where residents can let their dogs off-leash without leaving the property.

Dogs and cats are welcome. Breed restrictions apply — contact our leasing team at (833) 692-3631 for the full policy details before you apply.

Why Middlesex County Pet Owners Choose The Arthur

Middlesex County has no shortage of apartments that technically allow pets. Most charge the fees and offer nothing else. The Arthur is different. The on-site dog run is a dedicated, fenced, gated space maintained by the property — not a patch of grass next to the parking lot.

Inside every unit, you get in-unit LG washer and dryer (essential for pet owners), easy-clean modern flooring, and 9-foot ceilings that give both you and your pet room to breathe. Select units also include private patios for ground-floor access — great for morning routines without the elevator.

Carteret's location within Middlesex County also means easy access to the Garden State Parkway, NJ Turnpike, and Route 1, keeping commutes to Edison, Woodbridge, Perth Amboy, and beyond straightforward.

What Is The Arthur's Pet Policy?

The Arthur welcomes both dogs and cats. Breed restrictions apply. For details on approved breeds, weight limits, pet deposits, and monthly pet rent, call (833) 692-3631 or schedule a tour.
